Yes, most of them don't know about it. It's a huge issue because we've seen similar media policy failures/groupthink/herding etc. this pandemic as well, and that era is one of the better conceptual analogies to explain how it works (plus social media intensification).

Replying to @asociologist @zeynep
I’ve taught a “history of your lifetime” course for many years (approaching 10 idk?) and it’s covered both 9/11-Iraq War & the financial crisis and saw the same thing—vague familiarity through experience & seeking explanations to near-total unfamiliarity (this is why I teach it).

I teach a film and politics class where the films offer a kind of “time travel” for young people. Students consistently report that films like Jonestown, LA’92 or Oklahoma City are shocking because they had only vague or nonexistent ideas of what had happened in these events.

Yeah. There are so many of these things for which a sociological documentary would be so useful.
